My Brother’s Crawfish

This may be my favorite place to eat in Portland, and will definitely be my first stop on my next trip back. If you like spicy be sure to choose the spicy broth for your muscles, clams, or crawfish. Don’t to order at least one baguette!

I thought the food was a little too salty for me. I ate here in the evening and the place is a little too dark inside. Next time I think I’ll try take out.

The seafood broils are tasty but pretty expensive. However, it is the closest thing to a boiling crab, here, in Portland. I would highly recommend ordering at least 1 pound of shrimp, 1 pound of crawfish, and 1 pound of clams… Half a pound of anything is just not enough. The clams are pretty big and juicy, which, were my favorite. However, the sides are quite expensive. A loaf of bread was almost $ 3 and three slices of sausage was about $ 3… The restaurant is also a little bit small but there are tables available for bigger parties. They also have a bar. Would I come back? Maybe for happy hour. Sundays have all day happy hour.

The food here is so spectacular! The crab cakes and fried green tomatoes are to die for. I love the boils! The medium sauce is delightful with the French rolls. And the Cajun bloody Mary is my go to drink!
It hidden in a little corner. It’s a tiny little place. The service is fun and the environment is inviting!
Highly recommended to everyone!

One of the best crawfish place I ever had! (Although I didn’t order crawfish) I wish I got the medium for seafood boil but the mild just as good, the sauce is so bomb! I got half shrimp and half claims, two oyster shooters with cocktail sauce and everything on the side. The Cajun fries is also delicious, not too salty, it’s seasoned just right. I wish we have this in oc, I have to say this place might beat boiling crab/​kicking crab.

I would give them 10 stars, however their establishment does not accommodate the demands of business. They are small and in a corner, but do not underestimate their ability to deliver amazing service and phenomenal food! Our server made excellent recommendations and gave alternatives with description, which is always great when deciding heat factor. Three of us ordered crab & one crawfish. Two of the crab orders were medium and 1 mild. If you are the average Joe, medium is sufficient, however if you like a little more spice in your life, I would encourage going for the gusto and getting the hot. Next time I’ll definitely go for it. If you’re looking for a new place to indulge in seafood, I highly recommend My Brothers Crawfish.

We ordered:
1lb spicy crawfish for me. Amazing flavor. Best I’ve ever had. Good portion size for me when I included half the French bread side and 2 half orders of corn.
2lb garlic crawfish to share between my husband, our 2 year old and our 4 year old. The flavor was okay. Decent. Nothing compared to the spicy that I had. My husband insisted he was eating, but he admitted afterward that he only ate two crawfish. So my kids ate about a pound each!
Service was great.friendly. Kinda a sketchy parking lot after dark but overall delicious.
For reference: crawfish market price was $ 10/​lb

This is place is amazing!!! The boils are awesome the crawlfish and shrimp and snow crab and claims I’ve all tried and is amazing. Look on FB got their page they always have fb specials but you gotta see it and tell them to get the promotional price. Sunday is happy hour all day which is awesome there’s normally a wait for food and the table but it’s totally worth it. Get the baguette with your boil. So good.

Good flavor. The dishes have some spice (not too much), but not just for the sake of spice. It is a very full flavorful spice. Great food.

Mmm mmm mmm!!! There aren’t very many boil places in Portland but this place knows what they’re doing.
If you came dressed up, you have came to the wrong place. This is a place where you need to put in some delicious dirty work to crack open these seafood delights! Be cautious, the boils come out pretty hot. I’ve burn my fingers and mouth numerous of times. I never learn my lesson. I love the idea of customizing your own pot, I’ve been to some places where I was stuck with a bunch of stuff I didn’t want. Their new addition of allowing half pounds is great! I use to have to bring it to go because it’s way too much food. Not that I’m complaining.
I’ve had their plates and at the end of the day, I’ve had better. But they’ve excelled at their boils especially for Portland. I’m a corn bread fanatic, I would say get a few sides of it. It’s great to dip into the boil broth.
Follow them on Facebook and Instagram, they always have some sweet deal going on.

We got two pounds of crawfish and one pound of snowcrab in the mild boil. I wouldn’t suggest getting the crawfish as you can only get a little meat out of them and it’s simply not enough to fill you up. The overall flavor is delicious and the happy hour menu looks amazing. Hush puppies are similar to miss delta on Mississippi and the sweet potato fries were great. Staff was a bit unprofessional but it was a slow time during the week and only regulars were sitting at the bar. Prices were affordable and the food was great. Will be back!

Food was awesome. Definitely the best crawfish in Portland! I ordered the king crab boil with crawfish, shrimp, clams, sausage, corn & potatoes. It was so good. Also really huge serving. The cornbread was very tasty as well. Don’t forget to ask for a bib! LOL

We ordered 2 lbs of crawfish for 2 people and then you can add things like potatoes, corn, sausage, and bread for a couple more dollars. If you don’t like crawfish, you can order crab or other seafood for a different price. I thought the sauce was really food and crawfish really soaked up a lot of the flavor which I really liked. Our waiter was really nice and checked on us often. We left with happy bellies.

This place is very good. We ordered the jambalaya & peel & eat shrimp. The shrimp could’ve been less greasy, but I know a lot of people prefer it that way. I think we waited 45 minutes on a Saturday night. We’ll come back.

as I got into Portland after a good 9 hours of driving, I needed something good to eat. They were opened, ordered some alligator,

Interesting place. Super hit and miss experience, but plenty of good to balance out the not good.
A table of 5, and it was roughly half and half who was happy with their order. Overall the food was decent, but the clam/​mussel/​shrimp boil was by far the best order made. The cajun fries were really good too. Bonus points for having beers from Louisiana available. Also enjoyed the beans and rice and cornbread that came with my meal.
The less good… I ordered Blackened Catfish, but it just looked fried and was really bland. More grease than flavor. Wouldn’t get again. We also ordered a side of regular rice, which was passed around for a few at the table to smell (described by one as dirty mop water). It was eventually sent back. The waitress returned with an apology and explanation that it came from the rice cooker they weren’t supposed to use, so the new rice would be better. Great… but what about the rice in everyone’s meal? Left everybody pretty grossed out.
Cool place inside, and really quiet. Even with the less than stellar experience, I’ll give it another chance.

I love coming here for their crawfish boils. It’s so tasty here! You can choose which flavor broth boil you like. Dip the bread into the broth and you’re in heaven. The seafood are delicious! Oyster shooters are pretty yummy! Great place to come here with a group anytime of the day! Always great service! Happy hour menu is wonderful! I’m craving to come here again.

I came here with a friend for the reasoning I had bought a Groupon. It was the very last day to use it.
I’m glad I bought it & made the visit. I ordered the chicken/​sausage jambalaya which came with a corn bread. It was soooo Delicious! Everything we got was Yummy. We enjoyed our server, food and drinks. Thanks to my Groupon we didn’t pay no more than $ 25 for two meals, appetizer and two drinks. We also had enough to take home.
I’ll be coming back!

I am deducting two star because of the unbelievable wait time.
We ordered to-​go since the tables were full and they told us it would take 45 min for us to sit down.
And it has been more than an hour since we waited. This beats the purpose of taking it to go.

Not the best place in Portland to eat. Came here for my cousins birthday with a party of 20… it took over an hour to get everyone served. not a good look. Yes the Sunday happy hour is a good but not worth the wait!
I had the shrimp gumbo it was nasty and thick.
Spicy but actually good «chicken jambalaya» taste like somebody White made it nobody from down south no Creole people.
The corn on the cob wasn’t buttered as it should have been. The Cajun fries were good!
The drinks are overpriced and watered down taste like eight dollars for sprite. Waitress were nice but slow as fuck!
What I recommend this place no only if you’re going with one or two people Then do not go here!!!
